president barack obama, for rebuking senator barack obama when he was excoriating the bush white house. in the long term the effects of this will be good because it is part of what is called a war on terror which was authorized by congress in the days after 9/11 and it is right that this should be a presidential decision. >> most of the criticism of the president's decision, this is president obama now, we're speaking of, has really focused on his passion for secrecy, rather than on the action itself. so most people are not questioning the right to kill people rather than capture and interrogate them which might be a value to our national security. >> people should acquaint themselves with the federalist papers. secrecy and executive dispatch is the reason we have a president, not just a parliamentary system. and so that's what president obama has discovered too. jon: but we also got rid of kings or, you know, set up a government that doesn't involve kings because we didn't like having one person have the power to sort of order life-and-death decisions. >> right. but we also understand

so this could kind of be the nixon goes to china time for obama. if he were to reach out to republicans, he's got the credibility in his own party. that's where a large majority of his popularity comes from, from his base. it's where it should come from. does he reach out to republicans, does he try to solve the issue with the debt, does he try to create changes in the way we are spending today that can stimulate the economy and create jobs? we'll find out what his approach is. if it's more of these poll-tested platitudes like he did in the inauguration where he talked about gay rights, global warming, immigration, those things matter to a lot of people, but not everyone. people are worried about does he try to cut spending and the deficit, and if so, i think it'll be a successful speech for him. jon: the president got what he wanted in terms of higher tax rates on the people he calls millionaires and billionaires, and congress turned around and spent all of that money on one bill, the sandy can relief bill. sandy relief bill. so does he then push

i think they realize that obama hald alowe bam obama had call the cards to play on the fiscal cliff. a think tank run by the former president says if we got economic growth to 4% we could balance the budget. then you get into technology, innovation and energy, and fracking. i mean, for example, california alone has $3 trillion worth of oil in its offshore areas between the coast and where the federal waters take over. california's own waters and guess what they are not using it because they stopped them that. would balance the government in california a hundred times over and yet oddly enough the obama administration and the epa are not interested. jon: we'll continue that discussion during the break. we'll be right back. but their shakes aren't always made for people with diabetes. that's why there's glucerna hunger smart shakes. they have carb steady, with carbs that digest slowly to help minimize blood sugar spikes. and they have six grams of sugars. with fifteen grams of protein to help manage hunger... look who's getting smart about her weight.

jon: a brand new look at one of the most secretive and controversial policies of the obama administration. good morning, i'm jon scott. jenna: hi, everybody. glad you're with us today. i'm jenna lee. these reports are surfacing of a confidential justice department memo that authorizes the killing of american citizens overseas in drone strikes. now there's a caveat. the killing is allowed if they're leaders of al qaeda or a associated terror group. this alone considered an imminent threat, even if there is it no clear evidence that a specific attack on the united states will take place in the immediate future. and the whole controversial issue sure to come up when the president's pick to head the cia john brennan, testifies at his confirmation hearings later this week. timing matters. chief intelligence correspondent herridge shirge is live in washington with more on this. >> reporter: this is clash between executive powers and congressional oversight. at center of this is the assertion by the obama white house it has the right to target american citizens for death without judicial review.
